I reckon you know that phones are starting to compete seriously with camera’s for the must have photography gadget when the digital camera sites start promoting them, and I’ve just started receiving emails from a couple of the digital camera gadget sites I like that are promoting a new 5 Mega Pixel phone from Samsung…

The Samsung SGH-G600 mobile phone has a 5 Mega Pixel camera which is more than my (admitedly somewhat old) Pentax Option digital camera!

My current phone, the second Samsung I’ve owned, is the previous model to this new phone, the SGH-U600, which is pretty much the same size and has a 3.2 MP camera, which I thought was pretty good, especially with the price of memory cards now, it’s easy enough to get a 1 or 2GB memory card and be able to store hundreds of photos.

But this new one really does mean you can replace your digital camera with a combined phone/camera, neat!

They’ve also removed the irritating touch sensitive buttons that are a constant pain on the current model, thank you Samsung!
